I could've sworn when I bought my car which was a year ago, the guy was bragging on how it had a full sized tire and rim inside. And I could've sworn that it really did have an actual tire with the stock rim on it inside the trunk, because he showed me. My friend gave me some flares the other day, just incase I need them, well I have a dinky little donught tire in there now. My question is, was there an option to get a full sized replacement tire as the spare in the car? Or was I somehow imagining the whole full sized tire as the replacement lol.

The reason I ask this, is because the shop I go to, the helper got fired due to stealing stuff out of cars and from the shop.

 

Wasn't an option that I know of. I know I have a donut spare.

 

A full size wouldn't even fit in the spare tire well. Everybody gets a donut.

 

We have a tire the same size as the ones that come on the car (195/50), but on a steel rim.

 

^ thats for a lancer? the ralliart stock is 205/50r16

 

Yes, the RA in Europe (called sport intense, but the same chassis) comes with Yokohama Advan A460 (or A480, i can't remember) 195/50/r16

 

ah ok, thanks everyone. I guess I was hearing and seeing things lol.
